One surgeon with GIST experience is :

Dr. Koniaris' interests include: hepatobiliary diseases, pancreatic disease, gastrointestinal malignancies, sarcoma




I am considering Dr. Benedetto at the U of M, a sarcoma expert. He taught Dr. D'Amato so he must know his stuff. His credentials are excellent. However, my concern is whether he is up to date on GIST.
